SciFi and Fantasy Art: Sacrifice

In the middle ages, it was believed that burning fern leaves summoned rain.

After enduring one of the longest drought periods in history this shaman/druid, took some desperate measures. This huge fern plant was green an very little if not affected by the murderous drought. He resorted to burning the whole plant alive attempting to catch Mother Nature's attention and remind her to pour some rain on those lands. Big Mistake.

That fern plant was one of Mother Nature's most precious and sacred creations, the Fern of Endurance, able to wistand her temper and was able to reason with her when she got out of hand.

The shaman got Mother Nature's attention alright, and he suffered her rage. He was doomed into a million little dropplets of water scattered into the four corners of the World by torrential rains.

Until every little last dropplet is put together he will not regain his form agian.
